Robert Wilkinson Obituary

If you were ever lucky enough to cross paths with Robert J. Wilkinson - Bob, as he preferred - you already know that he had a remarkable way of filling a room with humor, wisdom, and unshakable warmth. On May 23rd, at the age of 79, Bob passed peacefully at The Residence at Great Woods, surrounded by the family he cherished.

Bob's legacy lives on in those who loved him: his wife Maureen Wilkinson of Plainville; his daughter Debra Terrell and her husband Adam, and grandson Braden, all of North Attleboro, MA; step-daughter Katie Tebo, her husband Patrick Alam, and grandchildren Natalie and Philip of Rome, NY; and his step-sons Christopher and Kevin Tebo of Plainville. He is also survived by his sisters and brother - Alice, Vivian, Pauline, Paul, Patricia, and Nancy - along with their spouses, numerous nieces and nephews, and dear friends from every chapter of his life. Bob also shared many years of life and memories with his former spouse Bonnie Wilkinson of Attleboro, MA.

True to form, Bob didn't want a somber goodbye. Instead, his family will host a Celebration of Life, just the kind of lively gathering Bob would have thrown himself. Stories, laughter, and memorabilia from his rich life will be shared, and all are welcome. The Celebration of Life will be held Saturday, September 6, 2025 at Grazina Event Space, 83 Morse Street 4F, Norwood, MA from 10:30 am – 2:30 pm. Memories and Stories 11 am – Noon. Let us know if you plan to come or if you are unable to attend and would like to share a memory please email: [email protected].

For Bob's complete obituary or to send the family a written expression of sympathy, please visit an online guest book at www.dyer-lakefuneralhome.com.

Arrangements are under the direction of the Dyer-Lake Funeral Home, 161 Commonwealth Avenue, Village of Attleboro Falls, North Attleboro. (508) 695-0200.

To plant trees in memory, please visit the Sympathy Store.
